With local venues in a state of lull, Idefix and I travelled north for some sweet Piper's goodness. 25deg air temp, empty bay, consistent 20kt winds for our first session with the 4mX3. I got in just as Uddereef and the local elite riders finished their wind play in the bigger early winds. They certainly left lots leftover for us foilers and the water in the bay was welcomingly warm. Fantastic for the poor gybe learner like me who was going to spend a lot of time in the water. the only downside was the tide movement. The early ebb made it tough to get foiling on the way back in when you hit the holes. This switched 180deg in the afternoon with the flood. Great fun playing gybe games with Idefix in the bay! Hoping to be back on Tuesday to this learner's paradise. Kinda glad for a day off the wind on Monday after 5 consecutive foiling days - unsustainable for senior citizens like me.
